Job Description

Vitech is seeking a Software Engineer to expand our product development team. This position offers the opportunity to develop high-end commercial engineering software products in a fast-paced, no-nonsense environment using modern tools and approaches. Our team of software and quality assurance engineers work collaboratively—with inputs from customers and our own industry experts—to produce high-quality product releases in an agile process, continually delivering new capabilities to the market and empowering our customers to develop better solutions to their systems challenges across a wide range of industries.

Working at Vitech affords all team members the opportunity to contribute across the company – product definition, methodology, marketing, customer experience, and beyond. This is an opportunity to escape bureaucratic environments and mundane software projects to make a real difference in an organization delivering mission critical tools that help change our world.

Robust collaboration with a distributed team of other software engineers and product experts is critical to success in this role. This position may involve access to information that is subject to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), and preference will be given to U.S. citizens, Green Card holders, and or other U.S. persons within the meaning of ITAR.

  • Comprehend, leverage, and improve upon existing software systems
  • Design and implement software using Microsoft Visual Studio, .NET, and C#
  • Promote use of common software patterns and best practices
  • Work under the guidance and mentorship of senior software engineers throughout the software lifecycle
  • Mentor less experienced team members throughout the software lifecycle via code inspections and other peer reviews
  • Embrace the plan-do-check-act cycle, recommending process and methodology improvements as part of a learning organization
  • Maintain a willing and flexible attitude, assuming duties as needed to contribute to team success
  • Be a self-starter with the ability to multi-task and communicate technical issues efficiently

Position Qualifications

The successful Software Engineer candidate will have:

  • At least three years of practical software development experience leveraging object-oriented techniques and fundamental software patterns and best practices
  • At least two years of C# and Microsoft .NET experience. Candidates without this experience may be considered if they show a desire to learn these skills on the job, through professional development activities, and/or self-study.
  • At least two years of web development experience leveraging technologies such as ASP.NET, JavaScript, CSS, Angular, React
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills
  • Excellent organizational skills, attention to detail, and work ethic
